NetConWatcher

The NetConWatcher program is primarily intended for monitoring network availability and for communication between the client part of the program and the server.
Any number of tasks can be created for monitoring, which then verify availability using the ping command.

Tasks can be run manually or automatically:

• daily
• monthly
• at a set time

To monitor "VIP" servers, a client application can be deployed on each computer - the program then maintains continuous monitoring of the stations. Clients can be communicated with via text messages and defined actions can be triggered remotely. The server is then informed about the result of the execution, or the output of the program is passed to it (e.g. from the command line)


List of available actions from the server

• Sending text messages
• Sending pings
• Terminating clients
• Starting a command on a client - allows you to remotely execute a command that is defined on a client. The command name is encrypted during transmission

List of available actions from the client:

• Sending text messages to the server
• Pinging the server

For each set of pings sent, you can define values for triggering actions and respond to these actions during monitoring, e.g. by sending an email, launching files

Monitored parameters:

• Number of responses over a time interval
• Number of packets lost
• Total loss rate in %

The pings sent can be grouped into blocks, for which thresholds can also be set. These are the number of blocks where pings exceeded a specified number or the number of blocks where packet loss occurred.


For a sent ping, the following can be set:

• Packet size
• Number of retries
• Time to wait for a reply
Subsequent send interval

All operations are logged and displayed directly in the program window, or they can be automatically saved to files with a unique name (HTML, XML, CSV, TXT).
For clarity, the program includes a Task Log, where information related to sent pings is recorded, and a Server Log with details of communication between clients.
